Before we dive into the model Y efficiency numbers and comparisons, I want to take a moment to talk about why efficiency and electric vehicle is so important.
One of the first reasons why efficiency is so important in an electric vehicle is because of the energy density difference between gasoline, and batteries.
This document contains multiple graphics and passages comparing electric vehicles to gas vehicles. Some key points made include:
- Electric vehicles have lower fueling costs than gas vehicles but take longer to refuel. Their range is also shorter.
- Over the long term, the total costs of owning an electric vehicle are much lower than a gas vehicle due to fuel and maintenance costs.
- Electric vehicles produce no tailpipe emissions, whereas gas vehicles produce greenhouse gases and air pollution. The emissions from electric vehicles depend on how the electricity is generated.
- Maintenance costs are typically lower for electric vehicles since they don't require oil changes, tune-ups, and have fewer moving parts. However, battery replacement adds to the cost.
Electric cars and gasoline cars are compared based on various factors such as year of invention, fuel, powertrain, weight, vehicle range, fuel economy, maintenance, pollution, noise, battery replacement, and refill/recharge processes. While electric cars were invented earlier, gasoline cars became more popular due to readily available fossil fuels. Electric cars are heavier due to batteries but have fewer moving parts requiring less maintenance. They produce no tailpipe emissions but have a shorter range between charges compared to gasoline cars. Overall operating costs of electric cars are lower due to cheaper refueling and maintenance.
1) A hybrid vehicle combines two or more power sources, such as a gasoline engine and electric motor, to provide propulsion.
2) Gasoline-powered cars are efficient but polluting, while electric cars produce no emissions but have limited range and slow charging times. Hybrids aim to reduce these tradeoffs.
3) There are two main hybrid configurations - parallel hybrids allow both the engine and electric motor to power the vehicle directly, while series hybrids use the engine to charge a battery and power an electric motor only.
Electric vehicles market is a hot topic today because of its strong link with environmental regulations fixed by governments of all developed countries,

Electric vehicles first gained popularity in the late 19th century as battery technology advanced, allowing for higher speeds. By the early 20th century, electric vehicles were more popular than gas-powered cars due to their reliability. However, as the price of electric cars increased and fossil fuels became cheaper, gas vehicles rose in demand. Interest in electric vehicles renewed in recent decades due to higher gas prices and environmental regulations. Now, battery technology provides electric vehicles with ranges over 200 miles, and many major automakers are producing electric car models as their popularity continues to grow.

This document provides an introduction to electric vehicles (EVs). It defines an EV as a car that uses electric motors for propulsion powered by electricity rather than petrol. There are three main types of EVs: hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and full electric vehicles. EVs work by using electricity stored in a battery to power the electric motor and move the car, rather than using an internal combustion engine fueled by petrol. While EVs have benefits like lower emissions and fuel costs, their disadvantages currently include higher purchase prices and limited range between charges.

Comparing Gas-Powered Cars and Electric Cars
Electric cars have become increasingly popular in the past century. These cars use
electric motors instead of conventional gasoline engines. Electric cars pollute less and utilize
energy more efficiently than gas-powered vehicles; therefore, modern research is focusing on
improving electric vehicles, such as increasing the storage capacity of the batteries. This essay
seeks to identify the differences and similarities between the two types of cars focusing on their
performance, price, and convenience.
An electric car is a car that is primarily powered by electricity. The conventional gas-
powered cars require diesel or gasoline to power the engines. These cars have gas tanks that store
fuel and the engine converts the gas to the energy that powers the motor. Similarly, electric cars
have batteries, or fuel cells that store and convert electricity to energy used to propel electric
motors (What Are Electric Cars?). Four components present in electric cars distinguish it from
the gas-powered cars (Alternative Fuels Data Center: How Do All-Electric Cars Work?). The
first is the charge port. Since electricity powers an electric car, there has to be a port to connect
to an external power source when charging the battery. The second is an electric traction motor
that propels the vehicle. The third is a traction battery pack. This battery serves the same purpose
as the gas tank; thus, it stocks electric power to propel the motor. The forth is a direct current
converter. This component converts the current to low voltage power that is needed to power the
electric engine.

You need to watch the panapto session for this paper assignment and FOLLOW the instructions I give there. Your topic sentence must follow the patterns set forth by your thesis. So, this first paragraph must have a topic sentence about GAS POWERED cars and PRICE. That is what you have set forth in your thesis. Watch the panapto session. And ask me questions if you do not understand what I mean.

No, you cannot 'announce' what your essay will do. And this is NOT the thesis I approved. What I approved:"Both gas-powered cars and electric cars are now in use, but their price, performance and convenience may vary, which may influence people's decisions about which type to use."

Differences between gas-powered cars and electric cars
The initial purchase price of an electric car is much higher than that of a gas-powered car.
Consumers intending to own a vehicle have the option of buying or leasing. The initial cost of a
car depends on an individual's disposable income and savings. Knez et al. noted that "When it
comes to financial features, the most important thing seems to be the total price of the vehicle"
(55). The difference in price between electr.
Electric cars are powered by electric motors and batteries instead of gasoline engines. They produce no tailpipe emissions, are quieter to drive, and have lower emissions than gas-powered cars. Some advantages of electric cars include being better for the environment if powered by renewable energy, requiring less maintenance than gas cars, and qualifying for tax credits. Key features of electric cars are powerful acceleration, regenerative braking that charges the battery, and roomy interiors since electric drivetrains take up less space than engines. Popular electric car brands in India include Tata, MG, Hyundai, and Mahindra, with prices usually higher than comparable gas-powered cars but lower operating costs.
Hybrid cars combine a gasoline engine with an electric motor to improve fuel efficiency. They work by using the electric motor for acceleration and braking and the gasoline engine for maintaining speed. This allows for regenerative braking that captures energy during braking to recharge the batteries. Hybrids get better gas mileage than conventional cars, with emissions reduced by 30-50%. Current hybrid models include the Toyota Prius, Honda Accord Hybrid, and Ford Escape Hybrid.
Have you pulled your car up to the gas pump lately and been shocked by the high price of gasoline? As the pump clicked past $20, $30, $40 or even $50, maybe you thought about trading in your car for something that gets better mileage. Or maybe you're worried that your car is contributing to the greenhouse effect.

Latest trends in automobiles seminar reportDeepak kango
The document discusses the latest trends in automobiles, focusing on hybrid vehicles. It describes how hybrid vehicles work using both gasoline and electric power sources. The electric motor provides supplementary power for acceleration and regenerates energy during braking to charge the battery. Popular hybrid models mentioned include the Toyota Prius, Lexus RX 400h, and Honda Accord hybrid. Hybrids offer better fuel economy and performance compared to gas-only vehicles but cost more upfront. The document also briefly discusses fully electric vehicles and their history, limitations in range/battery life, and potential as a future alternative fuel.
The document discusses various aspects of electric vehicles and their impact on the environment. It provides information on different types of electric cars like the Nissan Leaf, Ford Focus Electric, and Tesla Roadster. It also discusses the benefits of electric cars like lower emissions but notes the higher upfront costs compared to gas vehicles. Concerns are raised that not all households could afford electric cars and switching entirely from gas may not significantly reduce environmental impacts.
The document discusses hybrid cars and how they work. It provides details on:
- Hybrid cars combine a gasoline engine and electric motor/battery to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.
- There are two main hybrid systems - parallel and series. Parallel systems allow both the engine and motor to power the wheels simultaneously. Series systems use the engine to charge a battery which powers the motor.
- Key components include a smaller gasoline engine, electric motor, batteries, and a power split device that connects the various components.
- Hybrid cars can run on just the electric motor for short distances, use regenerative braking to recharge batteries, and turn the engine off when stopped to save fuel. This allows them to achieve better
Are we bound by gasoline? Can we escape the hold of expensive fuel and pollution? Yes, we can. The DCEI Drivetrain unleashes an entirely new concept that could revolutionize automotive technology as well as travel.
Electric Vehicles: Fun Saving Our PlanetPaul H. Carr
Electric cars are fun to drive: silent acceleration 0 to 60 mph in 3 tl 6 seconds.
They are doubly green, saving our planet with no carbon dioxide emissions and saving the green in your pocketbook. They get the equivalent of 100 miles per gallon, saving $4000 in fuel costs over the average new vehicle during five years and requiring no oil changes.
The number of moving parts in an electric motor is an order of magnitude lower than for a gasoline engine.
Electric motors are more than twice as efficient.
The 2019 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to the co-inventors of the Lithium-Ion Battery
This document summarizes the current status of electric cars. It discusses their advantages such as reduced emissions and cheaper operating costs compared to gas vehicles. However, it also notes challenges like high battery costs, limited driving range, and lack of charging infrastructure. Major automakers are working to develop more affordable electric models to help overcome these issues and meet fuel efficiency standards. The future of electric vehicles depends on continued innovation to address costs and driver acceptance of the technology.
This document provides an overview and analysis of alternatively fueled vehicles. It discusses hybrids like the Ford Fusion hybrid and Chevy Volt. It finds that while hybrids have better fuel economy, the cost savings on gas does not offset the higher purchase price over the life of the vehicle. It also examines the Ford Fusion Flex Fuel, finding it provides improved fuel economy over the standard model for a lower cost. The document uses data on prices, fuel economy and driving habits to calculate the financial impacts of different vehicle options over time.
Tesla Motors established a new record with its Model S P85D electric car, scoring a 103 out of 100 on Consumer Reports tests and forcing Consumer Reports to adjust its scoring system. The new Model S accelerates from 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds, 2 seconds faster than the previous Model S. However, the Model S P85D costs over $100,000 and Tesla hopes to produce a more affordable $35,000 electric car called the Model 3 starting in 2018.
I-Robotics proposes a charging network for electric vehicles similar to Tesla's Superchargers. Currently, long refueling times and higher costs are problems in the electric vehicle industry. I-Robotics' solution would involve standardizing global battery slots for car makers and requiring consumers to register batteries with an I-Robotics charging service provider, similar to purchasing a cell phone and service plan separately. This new concept could address range anxiety and refueling issues if widely adopted.
wheather electric cars are eco friendly?vanshsingla79
This document analyzes whether electric vehicles are more eco-friendly than petrol or diesel vehicles. It finds that electric vehicles have lower life cycle greenhouse gas emissions, being around 30% lower than petrol vehicles and 23% lower than diesel vehicles. However, the cleanliness of electric vehicles depends on the energy source used to generate the electricity - coal-based electricity in India means electric vehicles are not as environmentally friendly currently. The document also categorizes different types of electric vehicles like BEVs, HEVs and PHEVs, finding PHEVs to be the most advanced and energy efficient.
Similar to How Efficient Is The Tesla Model Y (20)
Are all EV charging plugs the same? There are three types of EV plugs available at the moment. There is the the standard J1772 plug which comes as standard with most new vehicles, the Chathamo and the dedicated Tesla charging cable, but which one should you use for your EV?
The more important claim that we’re here to address is that it’s currently the best electric vehicle on the planet, as you can tell from that Jaguar has held nothing back in creating this car and will be doing the same in putting it to the test.
Electric cars will be come the norm in ten years but will the Kona EV be one of them?
Electric cars have been around for a long time now, but they’ve not really been valuable for many ordinary motorists. Hyundai claim they have one with the Kona EV, but do they?
Which electric SUV is better the Tesla Model Y or the Hyundai Kona Ev? We tested both, and this is what we found.
The Kona EV is one of the most underrated EV’s currently available, and is an excellent choice for many families. But just how does it compare to Tesla’s newest electric SUV, the Model Y?
Porsche first announced the Taycan as a concept car called the Mission-E back in 2015. There was a lot of interest in the car then, but when Porsche announced it was going into production it was a mad rush to Porsche dealers to place orders, but was it worth the wait?
The Hyundai Kona and the Kia E-Niro are maybe two of the most underrated electric vehicles on the market. Both vehicles are well priced compared to the competition and offer pretty good efficiency, but which one did we choose?
The summary reviews the key points about the Tesla Model Y:
1) The Model Y is Tesla's new affordable family SUV, starting at around $40,000, making electric vehicles more accessible.
2) It has more passenger and cargo space than the Model 3 sedan, with ample legroom for tall drivers and a large cargo hold.
3) Advanced technologies include the autopilot driver assist system that can steer, brake, and see traffic lights, as well as sentry and dog modes.
The Kia E-Niro and Nissan Leaf are compared. While similar in size and both being electric vehicles, they differ in styling, battery/powertrain options and pricing. The Leaf has a smaller starting battery but also offers a longer range option. It is less expensive but has fewer premium features than the E-Niro. Both vehicles have comparable driving experiences though the E-Niro has an edge in acceleration. Ride comfort favors the softer Leaf while cabin noise depends on road surface.
this is the key Nero and it's basically like a value pack of batteries because essentially with these electric cars a lot of the money that you pay for them goes towards their batteries and what this thing does start from 33,000 pounds after taking into account a three and a half grand government grant it's still actually relatively cheap compared to other electric cars like the Tesla Model 3.

Implementing ELDs or Electronic Logging Devices is slowly but surely becoming the norm in fleet management. Why? Well, integrating ELDs and associated connected vehicle solutions like fleet tracking devices lets businesses and their in-house fleet managers reap several benefits. Check out the post below to learn more.
1. How Efficient Is The Tesla Model Y
https://www.electriccarfaq.com
How does the model Y efficiency compare to other electric SUVs?
Before we dive into the model Y efficiency numbers and comparisons, I want to take
a moment to talk about why efficiency and electric vehicles are so important.
One of the first reasons why efficiency is so important in an electric vehicle is
because of the energy density difference between gasoline, and batteries.
One gallon of gasoline or 3.79 liters weighs about 6 pounds and has the energy
equivalence of 33.7-kilowatt hours.
2. If you were to take that same amount of energy in a battery, 33.7 kilowatt-hours and
go with the average six points four kilograms per one kilowatt-hour, you’d find that
that battery would weigh 475 pounds plus.
If an electric vehicle had about the same efficiency rating as the average car, of
course, it would not be a viable product.
One of the best ways to illustrate just how efficient the model Y is to look at its
battery size, versus how many gallons of gasoline that equals energy.
The model Y has a 74-kilowatt hour battery which is equivalent to about 2.2 gallons
of gasoline, and actual energy potential. You can see just how efficient the model Y
is compared to your average gas-burning vehicle.
3. Not only is energy density and the weight a big deal, but also charging speed is a big
reason why an electric vehicle needs to be efficient.
When you take a vehicle to a gas station it doesn’t take very long to add 3 or 400
miles of range, but it takes a lot longer to add 3 or 400 miles of range to an electric
vehicle.
Model Y Charging Speed
When we talk about charging speed a lot of times we talk about percentages, how
long it takes to charge from 0% to 80%, or from 10 to 75%. The problem with that is
you’re not comparing the actual miles gained per minute.
If you compare the very efficient model Y to some of the other vehicles and see how
much battery capacity each one of these need to travel 315 miles, you’ll see that the
model Y only needs four-kilowatt hours of battery to go 315 miles.
Whereas, the least efficient vehicle on this list needs 147 kilowatt hours of battery to
go that same 315 miles. Since a model Y can travel 315 miles on about half of the
battery capacity of the E-Tron.
It becomes very clear that it’s going to take a lot longer to add a hundred miles of
range to the E-Tron, than it would the model Y.
4. Charging Speed
Efficiency is directly related to the charging speed when you look at how many miles
are added per minute of charging.
To illustrate just how efficient the model y is compared to its competitors, Tesla had
this graph in its q4 2019 investor letter.
And it shows that the model Y all-wheel drive vehicle is much more efficient than the
Jaguar iPace, the Mercedes EQC, the Ford Mach-E, and the Audi E-Tron.
This is comparing how many miles you can go per kilowatt hour of battery capacity. If
you go to fuel economy.gov and compare some of these vehicles, you’ll also see that
5. the mile per gallon equivalent of the Model Y is much higher than the rest of the
competition.
As I’ve mentioned before in previous posts the mile per gallon equivalent number is
not the best way to measure the efficiency of an electric vehicle.
What you’re doing is you’re taking an old way to measure miles per gallon, and
you’re trying to make it equivalent to an electric vehicle.
I believe the best way to measure the efficiency of an electric vehicle is either, look
at the watt-hours consumed per mile, or to look at how many miles the vehicle can
travel per kilowatt hour of battery capacity.
In the table below you can see that the model Y long-range all-wheel-drive variant
with a 74-kilowatt-hour battery can go 316 miles, and only consumes 234 watt-hours
per mile. And can travel 4.27 miles per kilowatt-hour of battery.
6. Whereas, the least efficient vehicle on this list, the Audi E-Tron, can only go 204
miles on its 95-kilowatt-hour battery pack. And consumes a massive 466-watt hour
per mile and can only travel 2.1 five miles per kilowatt-hour.
The model Y is the clear leader and efficiency among these other electric SUVs,
even when you include the very efficient Model X.
We’ve talked about some of the reasons why efficiency is important, but what it
comes down to as well as the actual amount of money you’re going to spend in
energy to power your vehicle.
Model Y Annual Running Costs
If you take a look at the annual energy cost between the model Y, the Jaguar i-pace
and the Audi E-Tron, you’ll see that annually traveling 15,000 miles per year the
model Y will cost you approximately five hundred and fifty dollars in electricity.
7. Whereas, the Jaguar iPace will cost you an additional three hundred dollars, and the
Audi E-Tron would cost an additional three hundred and fifty dollars.
Based on 45% highway, 55% city driving, 15,000 annual miles fueleconomy.gov
Model Y Long Term Running Costs
If you compound that out to ten or fifteen years of ownership, even compared to
other electric vehicles that are much more efficient than their gas-burning
counterparts, you’ll see that it still has the potential to save you well over three to
four thousand dollars in ten years.
These annual energy cost numbers, of course, become a lot more drastically
different when you compare the model Y to other gas-burning SUV’s like the BMW
X3, the Nissan Rogue, the Mercedes GLA 350 and other vehicles like that.
8. You’ll see from the table below that if you were to look at the 10-year ownership cost
difference between these vehicles, you could be talking in ten to fifteen thousand
dollars of savings in ten years driving the model Y, versus some of these other
vehicles.
Now that we’ve discussed just how efficient the model Y is, especially compared to
its competition both electric and gas burning, I want to talk about how Tesla achieved
such great efficiency.
Model Y Vehicle Weight
One of the first ways Tesla was able to achieve great efficiency is by keeping the
model Y very light. If you compare the model Y curb weight to some of its other
competitors, you’ll see that the model Y curb weight of 4,416 pounds is the lowest on
this list.
9. The Jaguar iPace as we talked about in a previous post is roughly the same size
vehicle, but it weighs almost 300 pounds more. The heaviest vehicle on this list is the
Audi E-Tron coming in at a whopping 5,843 pounds.
Curb Weight Comparison
Model Y Drag Coefficient
When it comes to any vehicle but an electric vehicle weight matters a lot because it
takes more energy to move a heavy vehicle. Another big factor when it comes to the
efficiency of a vehicle is the drag coefficient.
10. The drag coefficient measures how much air and wind resistance the vehicle
encounters when it’s driving, the model Y on this list has the lowest coefficient of
drag at just 0.23.
The Model X is the second-best on this list with a coefficient of drag of 0.25, the Audi
E-Tron at 0.28, the Jaguar is at 0.29 and the Mustang Mach-E they have said it will
be below 0.3.
With this low drag coefficient number, the model Y has a lot less wind resistance
than its competitors, which allows it to travel further with less battery capacity.
Another factor that allowed Tesla to engineer the model Y to be so efficient, was how
efficient their drive trains and their motors are.
Model Y Drive Train Efficiency
11. According to fueleconomy.gov, the average gasoline-burning car has an efficiency of
about 28 to 32 percent, this means that if you put 10 gallons of gasoline in a vehicle
you’re wasting seven of the 10 gallons on heat and other losses.
Also according to fueleconomy.gov, the average electric motor has an efficiency of
around 80%. According to an electric.com article the Tesla Model 3, and the Tesla
Model Y drive system has an efficiency of around 97%.
The permanent magnet motors found in the model 3 and the Model Y are some of
the most efficient motors in the electric vehicle space, and they waste very little
energy leading to more efficiency and more miles per kilowatt-hour of battery.
Model Y Thermal Management System
One other efficiency improvement in the model Y is having a heat pump versus a
resistive heating system in the rest of Tesla’s lineup. Green car reports had this to
say in their article entitled “can heat pump solve cold-weather range loss for Eve’s”
Heat pumps aid efficiency because they move heat rather than generate
it. SUV’S with heat pumps typically use a reversible setup to transfer
thermal energy out of the cabin during hot weather functioning as an air
conditioning compressor, and to bring thermal energy from power
components or outside into the cabin in cold weather. According to
Bosch, a heat pump drawing 1 kilowatt will generate the heat of between
2 and 3 kilowatts.
12. According to this data, a heat pump is 200 to 300 percent efficient, that’s some
amazing technology and the Tesla model Y has that built-in.
One of the reasons that might lead to Tesla’s being so much more efficient than the
other electric vehicles on the market, is its thermal management system for their
batteries.
In April of 2019 courts put out an article entitled “Audi won’t say why the E-Tron has
a big battery, but low range” and here’s a quote that I thought was important from
that article.
Given it is Audi’s first electric car the company might be playing it safe
with its thermal management system. It might be using up more energy to
maintain a tighter temperature range for the batteries, and thus leaving
less energy for driving
Tesla has had hundreds or even thousands of its cars driven for more than a
hundred thousand miles, or about a hundred sixty thousand kilometers, the distance
usually covered by an electric car battery warranty.
That means Tesla has had the time to optimize their thermal management system to
use as little energy as possible while maintaining the battery’s performance”.
In Conclusion
13. If you take all these reasons that I’ve mentioned, and some of the reasons that we
don’t even know about, it’s obvious to see why the Tesla Model Y is such an efficient
vehicle.
With the Model Y, Tesla has set a new standard for efficiency, the model Y is not
only capable and roomy, but it will be a great long-distance vehicle as well.
On top of all that the Model Y will save thousands of dollars in energy costs in its
lifetime, and in my opinion, it is the best value Tesla has ever offered in a vehicle to
date.
